Multi-man matches often afford us the opportunity to see wrestlers hitting their finishers in rapid succession, either each man hitting their move on someone else, or one person hitting his/her move on everyone.

It was that latter category that is the root of this “down” from the WWE Championship six-pack challenge. Right from the bell, John Cena proceeded to hit four rapid-fire AAs on Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, Baron Corbin and Dolph Ziggler, leaving AJ Styles and Cena alone in the ring together.

It was such a ridiculous moment. Zayn was understandable, and KO might make sense, but the other two charging in and getting dumped like that was plain stupid. It made all of them look like a bunch of geeks.

The rest of the match fared a lot better, and it was only a quick moment, but for a few seconds, it looked downright silly.
